6 Days Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater & Tarangire Safari
Experience the breathtaking wonder of the Ngorongoro Crater, a true testament to the remarkable beauty of nature. Embrace the awe-inspiring majesty of the Serengeti, where magnificent wildlife roam freely in their natural habitat and immerse yourself in the stunning beauty of Tarangire National Park.
We begin our foray into the bush the following day with a drive to the Serengeti. This legendary reserve supports large populations of lion, leopard and other predators that follow the great migrating herds.
We next journey to the incomparable Ngorongoro Crater, a natural caldera spanning over 100 square miles. This stunning creation of nature is home to tens of thousands of animals, as well as numerous Maasai tribesmen and their cattle.
Then comes the Tarangire with its thousands of majestic baobab trees dotting the rolling countryside. It is also home to enormous herds of elephants and the highest number of recorded bird species for any habitat in the world.

HOW DO I BOOK THIS SAFARI?
The unique appeal of this safari is the exclusive nature of hand-picked accommodations which can fill up quickly, particularly in high season, it is recommended to book at least 90 days in advance, some of our guests book 1 year in advance. A deposit in the amount of 30% of your per—person trip price will hold your space. Credit and Debit Cards including Visa, MasterCard, American Express, PayPal, and Discover are accepted for your trip deposit.
WHAT'S THE BEST TIME TO COME ON THIS SAFARI?
There is no best time, each season has its own special features. Safari in the rainy season [April—May, and October—November] and the landscape is beautifully green, the dust has settled and there are fewer guests on safari. The grass is fertile and tall which makes the spotting game more challenging but rewarding. The rain will mainly fall during the night. The remainder of the year is called the dry season, when there is less water available so animals tend to congregate around the water sources, making game spotting easier. This season also attracts more guests on safari specifically from June to September.
WHAT'S THE MINIMUM OR MAXIMUM AGE FOR GUESTS ON THIS TRIP?
No there isn’t, we welcome people of all ages. Children of all ages are allowed; we do suggest that children of the ages of 3 years and up seem to get the most out of their experience. There is no upper age limit. We kindly ask you to let us know in advance if you are physically challenged or less—abled.
I AM LACTOSE INTOLERANT/ REQUIRE GLUTEN-FREE MEALS/ ALLERGIC TO PEANUTS/ VEGAN. CAN YOU CATER FOR THIS?
Yes, the chefs at each lodge or camp have been specially trained to deal with many different types of dietary requirements. They will personally discuss your upcoming meals with you. Please also be sure to notify us of dietary requirements when making your booking.
DO YOU GUARANTEE A DEPARTURE?
Every Shrike trip is guaranteed to depart as scheduled, regardless of group size. With Shrike, once your departure date has been confirmed and we have received your deposit, your safari will take place. We pride ourselves on making, and keeping, this promise to our guests.
HOW MANY PARTICIPANTS PER DEPARTURE?
In keeping with our commitment to personalized service and exclusive arrangements, groups vary from as few as 2 guests [and what service!] to an average of 6 believed to be the smallest group in the industry.
CAN I TRANSFORM THIS SAFARI INTO A PRIVATE TRIP?
We can easily customize this safari into an exclusive, fully Private Safari, with you and your family, or a group of friends with your own safari guide. A private vehicle will be yours for all game drives and tours—a lovely feature! Please mention this option upon booking…
WHAT'S THE EARLIEST INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT THAT I CAN BOOK ON THE LAST DAY?
The earliest international flights you can book are those that depart at 2030 hrs or later. If you depart earlier than that, we can organize an early airport transfer for you; in this case, the earliest international departure you can book is then 1600 hrs.
...if there were one more thing I could do, it would be to go on safari once again.
